Maximum Entropy: Clearing up Mysteries

open access: yesEntropy, 2001
: There are several mystifications and a couple of mysteries pertinent to MaxEnt. The mystifications, pitfalls and traps are set up mainly by an unfortunate formulation of Jaynes' die problem, the cause célèbre of MaxEnt.

Maximum Entropy in Drug Discovery

open access: yesEntropy, 2014
Drug discovery applies multidisciplinary approaches either experimentally, computationally or both ways to identify lead compounds to treat various diseases. While conventional approaches have yielded many US Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved

On Maximum Entropy and Inference

open access: yesEntropy, 2017
Maximum entropy is a powerful concept that entails a sharp separation between relevant and irrelevant variables. It is typically invoked in inference, once an assumption is made on what the relevant variables are, in order to estimate a model from data ...

Maximum-entropy image reconstruction using wavelets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Wavelet functions allow the sparse and efficient representation of a signal at different scales. Recently the application of wavelets to the denoising of maps of cosmic microwave background (CMB) fluctuations has been proposed. The maximum-entropy method

Maximum Entropy on Compact Groups

open access: yesEntropy, 2009
In a compact group the Haar probability measure plays the role of uniform distribution. The entropy and rate distortion theory for this uniform distribution is studied.

A Weighted Generalized Maximum Entropy Estimator with a Data-driven Weight

open access: yesEntropy, 2009
The method of Generalized Maximum Entropy (GME), proposed in Golan, Judge and Miller (1996), is an information-theoretic approach that is robust to multicolinearity problem.

Nested Maximum Entropy Designs for Computer Experiments

open access: yesMathematics, 2023
Presently, computer experiments with multiple levels of accuracy are widely applied in science and engineering. This paper introduces a class of nested maximum entropy designs for such computer experiments.

Maximum entropy, fluctuations and priors

open access: yes, 2000
The method of maximum entropy (ME) is extended to address the following problem: Once one accepts that the ME distribution is to be preferred over all others, the question is to what extent are distributions with lower entropy supposed to be ruled out ...
